Madagascar reviews

plane Madagascar

June 24, 2024

It was convenient

Overall, we were provided with good guides and drivers. However, the student guide was honestly at an intern level. It wasn't a language issue, but rather a lack of professional awareness. The name seemed different from what we were told beforehand; was there some scheduling issue? I believe they will grow, but I was curious if they were paid the same as professional guides.

What kind of country is Madagascar?

Located about 400 km southeast of the African continent, this island, the fourth largest in the world, retains its untouched natural beauty, featuring the beautiful Baobab Avenue familiar from the fairy tale 'The Little Prince.' It is home to many unique flora and fauna found only in Madagascar, including famous species like lemurs, turtles, birds, and chameleons.
This island nation, far from Japan, is still very much a hidden paradise.
Experience Madagascar, a hidden paradise with unique features completely different from Japan.

Cash, cards and currency exchange
・Exchange currency by obtaining euros in Japan and exchanging them for Malagasy Ariary at the airport or a bank in Madagascar.
・Since Madagascar was originally a French colony, exchanging euros, the currency of France, offers the best rates.
・Credit cards can also be used, but cash may be needed at small shops or for taxis, so it is recommended to use both cards and cash.
Tips
・There is a custom of giving tips.
・Hotel porters and doormen, etc.: About 500 Ariary
・Restaurants: If the service charge is not included in the bill, about 10% of the bill amount
Public Safety
・Compared to the whole of Africa, security is stable.
・It's not that crime doesn't occur at all, so caution is necessary. Pickpocketing is common in areas with many tourists. Group robberies involving multiple perpetrators are also increasing, so please be careful not to let your guard down.
Clothing
・Depending on the season and region, you can wear long-sleeved shirts year-round in the inland areas. The coastal areas have strong sunlight and high temperatures, so having a T-shirt and a lightweight shirt or scarf for sun protection is convenient. In the south, if participating in morning and evening walking safaris, bringing warm clothing like fleece or windbreakers is essential.
Things You Should Bring
• Items such as stomach remedies, cold medicine, a mobile battery charger, insect repellent, and sun protection supplies.
Visa availability and arrangements
・A visa is required to enter Madagascar. A short-term stay visa for up to 30 days can be obtained at the airport.
Required vaccinations
・There are no mandatory requirements for travel. However, vaccinations for hepatitis A, hepatitis B, rabies, and HIV are recommended.
・Medical facilities are not well-equipped, so it is recommended to get vaccinations before traveling as a precaution.
